Brewed and bottled within the abbey walls, it forms part of a remarkably small range of just three Westvleteren beers: Blond, 8 and 12. Like its darker counterparts, it is unfiltered, unpasteurised and undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle, preserving the freshness, texture and character that define the brewery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1017\" data-end=\"1476\"\u003eIn the glass, it pours a lightly cloudy golden blond with a dense head and lively carbonation. Fresh citrus and lime zest lead the aroma, followed by delicate malt and hop character. The palate balances gentle malt sweetness against firm, refreshing bitterness, with citrus carrying through to a crisp, dry finish. At 5.8% ABV, it is considerably lighter than Westvleteren 8 and 12, but retains the precision and character associated with the abbey's brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1krg0gn\" data-start=\"1478\" data-end=\"1495\"\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1497\" data-end=\"1622\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1497\" data-end=\"1505\"\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1505\" data-end=\"1508\"\u003e – Fresh and citrus-led\u003cbr data-start=\"1530\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003e Bright citrus and lime zest with subtle malt, fresh hops and a lightly yeasty complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1624\" data-end=\"1766\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1624\" data-end=\"1634\"\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1634\" data-end=\"1637\"\u003e – Crisp and balanced\u003cbr data-start=\"1657\" data-end=\"1660\"\u003e Gentle malt sweetness meets lively citrus and firm hop bitterness, carried by fine, energetic carbonation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1768\" data-end=\"1890\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1768\" data-end=\"1778\"\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1778\" data-end=\"1781\"\u003e – Dry and refreshing\u003cbr data-start=\"1801\" data-end=\"1804\"\u003e Clean and persistent with citrus zest, delicate bitterness and a distinctly dry close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1ijp0ky\" data-start=\"1892\" data-end=\"1909\"\u003eFiner Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1911\" data-end=\"2157\"\u003eStyle – Trappist Blond Ale\u003cbr data-start=\"1937\" data-end=\"1940\"\u003e Country – Belgium\u003cbr data-start=\"1957\" data-end=\"1960\"\u003e Region – West Flanders\u003cbr data-start=\"1982\" data-end=\"1985\"\u003e Bottle Size – 330ml\u003cbr data-start=\"2004\" data-end=\"2007\"\u003e ABV – 5.8%\u003cbr data-start=\"2017\" data-end=\"2020\"\u003e Fermentation – Secondary fermentation in bottle\u003cbr data-start=\"2067\" data-end=\"2070\"\u003e Filtered – No\u003cbr data-start=\"2083\" data-end=\"2086\"\u003e Pasteurised – No\u003cbr data-start=\"2102\" data-end=\"2105\"\u003e Ingredients – Water, barley malt, sugar, yeast, hops\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2159\" data-end=\"2259\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trappist Westvleteren","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44275079675991,"sku":"WESTVLET-6","price":49.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/c5c356c2-81f4-40ad-a772-b2b3c3283237.webp?v=1789362032","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/trappist-westvleteren-6-blond-bottle","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
